Shachar, I use rsyncrypto with success. It's efficient and fast. But I recently discovered a problem that is maybe not directly related to rsyncrypto but that could stop someone to retrieve data when needed. This command works without error : "C:\Program Files\InstallDir\rsyncrypto.exe" -d "C:\test_dev_crypt\solutions_dev.mdb" "C:\test_recup\solutions_dev.mdb" "C:\test_recup\DataKeys\solutions_dev.mdb" "C:\Program Files\InstallDir/backupkey.bkpkey" This one produce an error and no files are created on destination "C:\Program Files\InstallDir\rsyncrypto.exe" -d "C:\test_dev_crypt\solutions_dev.mdb" "D:\test_recup\solutions_dev.mdb" "D:\test_recup\DataKeys\solutions_dev.mdb" "C:\Program Files\InstallDir/backupkey.bkpkey" Error : mkdir failed(D:): Input/output error I get the error when I try to decrypt to another disk than C: (D:, I:, ...) Could you reproduce the error ? Would you know what is causing this error ? Thank you. David V. |

Of the parameters in question, both the first and the second invocation, which of the files specified exist and for which you expected rsyncrypto to create them? Also, is the file "backupkey.bkpkey" a public or a private key? Thanks, Shachar |

Shachar, Sorry not to have given you enough informations. The folowing command line is produced by a php script wich is used to decrypt files when needed. We give the script a source directory in wich are the files to decrypt and a destination directory in wich rsyncrypto decrypt the files. The keyfiles for each file to decrypt are recreated in a directory called DataKeys under the destination directory. The file backupkey.bkpkey is a private key. Why did we use a script to feed rsyncrypto with files one after the other instead of just decrypting the directory with rsyncrypto ? Well ... that's the only way we found to produce a nice progress bar on the gui. Rsyncrypto does not (yet ?) produce progress information like rsync does. This system works very well for months and has decrypted thousands of files already. But we just realized that if the destination drive is not the C drive, rsyncrypto produces an error and do not create the decrypted file nor the keyfile. This command if or course one line but I'll comment it as if it was 5 lines Line 1 : "C:\Program Files\InstallDir\rsyncrypto.exe" -d Line 2 : "C:\test_dev_crypt\solutions_dev.mdb" Line 3 : "D:\test_recup\solutions_dev.mdb" Line 4 : "D:\test_recup\DataKeys\solutions_dev.mdb" Line 5 : "C:\Program Files\InstallDir/backupkey.bkpkey" Line 2 : source file. This is a file previously encrypted with rsyncrypto. The file exists. Line 3 : the destination directory "test_recup" exists on D: The destination file "solutions_dev.mdb" should be created by rsyncrypto (it is created correctly if the destination drive is C:) Line 4 : the destination directory "test_recup" exists on D:. The directory "DataKeys" and the keyfile file "solutions_dev.mdb" should be created by rsyncrypto (they are created correctly if the destination drive is C:) Line 5 : private key. The file exits. I hope it is a bit more clear now. David V. 2007/6/11, Shachar Shemesh <sh...@sh...>: > David V. wrote: > > Shachar, > > > > I use rsyncrypto with success.
